Hello

I am trying to boot BBB from uSD card but uboot is not working as expected , I am getting this error

Partition 1 Not Valid on device 0*
SPL:fat register err --1

I am using 8GB uSD card .
I tried to do little debugging actually MLO fails while registering FAT partition.
->fat_register_device

If you could help. I am using latest rev of BBB

Thanks

It's either a bad build of u-boot or your partition setup is wrong.

Please take a look and review:
